The paper aims at investigating how CSR (Corporate Social Responsibility) and ESG (Environmental, Social and Governance) disclosure affect the brand value of a sample of Interbrand companies. Empirically results show that the brand value is positively related to the environmental disclosure, social disclosure, and ESG disclosure, whereas no significant correlation has been found for the governance disclosure. This study provides new evidence to the growing body of literature that identifies CSR as a means of improving the company’s brand value and can represent a starting point in the discussion on the reputational benefits of CSR practices.

The aim of this paper is to determine the impact of awareness of religious teachings on corporate social responsibility disclosure in Libya. To achieve this aim (310) of the questionnaires were distributed to respondents who are the managers of companies operating in Libya in 2018. The spss modeling was used in the descriptive analysis of the data, and the intelligent modeling used the least squares (PLS-SEM) to test the hypothesis study. The study found that there is a positive relationship between the company manager's perception of religious teachings related to the social responsibility disclosure and the corporate social responsibility disclosure level of the companies which operate in Libya. The impact has extended to the four dimensions of disclosure: community disclosure, environmental disclosure, employee disclosure, and product - Customer disclosure.

According to surveys of companies, branding is one of the main objectives of their corporate social responsibility (CSR). With advantageous data from Brand Finance, we address three contextual factors that may condition the relationship between CSR and brand value. First, we hypothesize that the relationship between CSR and brand value obtains across major world regions and industrial sectors (“the convergence thesis”). Second, we hypothesize that the relationship has weakened with time, as companies have had increasing difficulty using CSR to differentiate their brands in a sea of CSR-espousing competitors (“the crowding out thesis”). Third, we hypothesize that the relationship between CSR and brand value is weaker where a brand’s identity is different from that of its corporate owner, which may make it difficult for observers to readily link (corporate-level) CSR with its potential (lower level) brand beneficiaries (“the identity-match thesis”). We support these hypotheses with random-effects, fixed-effects, and instrumental-variable regressions before ending with contributions, limitations, implications, and potential next steps.
